Abstract: A novel optical-isomer separating agent for chromatography is provided which has, as a chiral selector, a macrocyclic amide compound having the ability to function as a chiral shift agent. The optical-isomer separating agent for chromatography is formed by bonding, with a carrier by chemical bonding, a specific ring structure containing an asymmetry recognition site, an amide group as a hydrogen-bond donor site, and a hydrogen-bond acceptor site.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for enrichment of oxygen 18, which comprises the steps of optionally adding a hydrocarbon to a saturated aliphatic ether other than dimethyl ether and/or a saturated cyclic ether as an oxygen 18-containing starting material, irradiating the material(s) with laser light to induce oxygen 18 selective photodecomposition and separating oxygen 18-containing products from the photodecomposed products. Oxygen 18 enriched compounds obtained by the present invention can be used as tracers and the like.

Abstract: An enrichment method of carbon 13 by use of the multistage laser irradiation. A mixture of CHClF.sub.2 and Br.sub.2 is used as a start substance. The mixture is irradiated with laser rays emitted from a carbon dioxide gas laser to obtain CBr.sub.2 F.sub.2 enriched with carbon 13. This CBr.sub.2 F.sub.2 enriched with carbon 13 is once more irradiated with laser rays emitted from a carbon dioxide gas laser to produce C.sub.2 Br.sub.2 F.sub.4 which is further enriched with carbon 13. Alternatively, the product CBr.sub.2 F.sub.2 of the first laser irradiation is once more irradiated together with O.sub.2 to produce COF.sub.2 which is further enriched with carbon 13.

Abstract: Silicon isotopes are effectively separated by irradiating a polysilane compound or a fluoromosilane compound according to this invention with infrared laser rays. The polysilane compound is defined by the formula.Si.sub.a X.sub.b H.sub.cwhere 2.ltoreq.a.ltoreq.3, 0.ltoreq.b.ltoreq.2a+2, 2a+2=b+c and X represents a kind or kinds of halogen, and the fluoromonosilane compound is defined by the formula.SiFX.sub.1 X.sub.2 X.sub.3where X.sub.1 and X.sub.2 are selected from the group consisting of H, Cl, Br, I, F, an alkyl radical and a halogen derivative of the alkyl radical, and X.sub.3 is selected from the group consisting of H, Cl, Br, I, an alkyl radical and a halogen derivative of the alkyl radical.
